Is it Wrong to Copy Abilities in Apocalypse?

Chapter 92: CHAPTER 91 - First Main Scenario Complete 1.

[What is it, now?]

Along with her irritated voice that echoed throughout the boundaries of the maze, the system materialized above Alex's head, looking down at him with a grin on her face.

It was as if she already knew why Alex had called for her, and she already had an answer for it.

Alex, who saw this, frowned.

But just as he was about to open his lips...

[Ohhh! Look at this!! What a nice scene we have here!]

Her eyes sparkled as soon as she noticed the humans, who were still being devoured in the bodies of those abominations, screaming in agony.

The look of horror and pain.

*Click**Click**Click*...

Out of nowhere, a camera appeared in her hands, and she started clicking photos of the scene with an excited grin on her face.

[Hehehe, at least you humans are useful enough to give me the entertainment I've been craving for a while!]

The system spoke in a hurried voice, ignoring the hate-filled glares directed at her.

*Click**Click*...

She went on with what she was doing, only stopping after she was done taking pictures from every angle.

She could see everything on her administrative screen; she could even take screenshots, close-up shots, and even screen record, yet she did it here, just so that she could feel the real despair—the palpable tension in the air—this is what she wanted.

She couldn't get this in the video that would be played on her screen.

[Hah….]

With a content smile on her face, she sighed, her head finally turning to look back at Alex, and she yawned.

[Now, why did you call me?]

With her half-open eyes, she questioned Alex in a dismissive tone.

"Why was—"

But again, before he could even speak, his words were cut short as the system frowned, and her head snapped towards the chimeras that were looking at her as if waiting for her permission to move; she was their creator, after all.

[What the hell are you guys gawking at?! At least do a single damn thing you're supposed to do, you useless dumb beasts!]

Her voice rose as she gritted her teeth, anger flashing in her eyes, causing the air to tremble and the beasts to scramble toward the next human close to them, wanting to devour them all.

The system's gaze, however, remained fixed on one particular, causing it to tremble violently.

It was the Unnamed Chimera Anomaly.

Its body was quivering violently, and the system kept staring at it before...

*Snap*

*Boom*

She snapped her finger, causing the beast to blast into blood and paste, spraying its gooey black blood on everyone in its surroundings.

"..."

The air stilled for a second, and even Alex, who knew that the system couldn't do anything to him, had his body tensed.

It was a beast that Alex couldn't even hope to defeat with his limited power, yet it died with a single snap of her finger.

*Inhale**Exhale*

Alex took a deep breath, his eyes sharpening; he could already tell that it was the system who had sent the beasts after him, and it was clear now.

He could also perceive her intentions; all she was doing was trying to show the humans, or him in particular, the power she had, wanting to pressurize him.

She wanted Alex to take the wrong step after he realized the disparity of the situation.

She could control everything—the scenario, the beasts' lives, and their deaths—or so she was trying to show.

[Fucking useless...]

The system's grumble was heard before her gaze again turned toward Alex, expecting to see a panic-filled gaze, only to grit her teeth in frustration as there was not a hint of fear or dread in his eyes; all she saw was the same frosty light that had always been shining within his eyes.

[What do you want?]

She questioned Alex, her brows frowning, and her nose scrunched up, clearly showing her frustration and annoyance.

If not for her bitchy attitude, she would've looked really cute in the eyes of humans, who, unfortunately, weren't even looking at her face right now, as they were busy overcoming the shock and dread they felt.

They weren't Alex, after all.

The system could get all the terror, horror, or despair she wanted in the eyes of those humans, but she wasn't interested in them, and her mood was already spoiled after all of her plans failed.

She wasn't in the mood to waste her time on some beings who would pee in their pants whenever she wanted them to.

So, although grudgingly, she still waited for Alex's reply, tapping her feet on an imaginary platform in the air, impatience clear in her eyes.

"Why were the beasts aiming for me and not going for other humans?"

Alex's eyes sharpened as he directly questioned the system.

The system, however, just gritted her teeth, her willow palm balled up, and her gaze turned cold, as she was reminded of her failed attempt to kill Alex, or at least make him realize what real despair was.

[Are you dumb or what? Can't you see the difficulty level of the scenario? Did it feel like an A-level difficulty for you??

I was just making it fair for everyone by adjusting the difficulty!]

The system growled as the quest window popped up in front of Alex, and a particular section kept blinking.

[Difficulty: A.]

Alex, who heard the system's retort, turned silent.

The scenario was easy for him, at least before the chimera hybrid came into the game.

But then he frowned again.

"What about the others? Why did they have it easy then?"

Alex put forth his question, wanting to know why others got the ease in difficulty, but the system's sharp words were fast to reply.

[You call that easy??]

The system raised a brow as she stared at the scene where humans were being devoured before she turned back to look at Alex with a mocking grin.

[I didn't know you were so ruthless to your own kind.]

The system's sarcastic comment caused Alex's frown to deepen, but he stopped at that.

He already got his answers, and now that he looked at the complete view, he could understand why the system had rated it an A-ranked scenario.

He waved his hand, waving the quest window that kept blinking before he moved toward a small boulder and sat on it with his vigilance up.

The maze had emerged from the ground, so things on the ground, including the debris, were still present.

[What? Cat got your tongue? Nothing more to say??]

The system, however, still tried to taunt Alex as she saw him going silent.

It was clear that Alex lost in the debate, and the system, who was frustrated by the fact that she had only lost for the day, now grew cheery just because she could make Alex go silent.

Alex, on the other hand, just ignored the system; all he had to do now was wait the time out and not get kicked out of the final zone.

So, with his senses at full alert, he stayed seated on his spot, waiting for the time to pass.

[Hey, come on, say something!]

[You lost, right?]

[You don't have anything else to say now?]
